Going to have the shorter version on top then after the ******* going to have the original long version.

Kindle Unlimited but got heads up on a freebie day from bookbub or freebooksy site.

Is this book listed under Fiction, because it definitely should be. The people did not elect Trump; the Electoral College did. Spraying a ‘winning’ garbage dump doesn’t mean it’s not still a garbage dump, and the perfume wears off quickly. I was in Iowa during the Caucus, and was pretty much glued to the tv for weeks and months before and after; I KNOW better than what this book falsely claims. No, Trump is not like Sherlock Holmes, keeping his brain uncluttered of irrelevant information; the presidency of the United states has NO ‘irrelevant information’, and the FACT that Trump treats it all as irrelevant does not change the facts. His outright lies proven to be lies via interviews, written and taped and video taped, prove that, so no, he is not a Winston Churchill, and no he is definitely not like Roosevelt with his social welfare and infrastructure programs, and Inciting to Riot and other illegal acts is in no way presidential, much less ‘winner’ material.

As far as not listening to certain news outlets, considering that the person you are claiming is ‘smart’ listens and believes Fox News, which won a lawsuit for the right to NOT have to live up to journalistic standards of actual news agencies {hence Faux Newz} but instead be labeled ‘entertainment’, that speaks for itself. He is many things, but smart is not one of them. So, no, this is not a ‘winner’ it’s a whiner, and income tax records as well as at least 2 if not more lawsuits which he started, and lost the same one twice, prove that not only is he not a billionaire, he’s not even a millionaire, and would basically be middle of middle class earnings. He has bankrupted casinos, business after business, and is now working on doing that to the USA. How is that a ‘winner’?

The major fault, of many but this one is main, is that Trump never was really running for president; he just wanted the contributions, which again is proven by his ‘self financed’ website where he asked for contributions, 2 large buttons, via credit card, up to and for past the actual election. Just another scam, much the same as Trump University, oops the courts said he could no longer use University in the name, since it wasn’t anything more than a ponzi type scheme. The question is not whether Trump knows enough, he has proven he doesn’t, but if he knows anything much at all, and a team of people who know things but that Trump refuses to listen to will not help. The question is not whether Trump knows he is vulgar or not; he knows, but as Billy Bush and other incidents have proven, he just doesn’t care, because he’s been able to get away with it for so long. Also, just because the writer assumes that Trump’s skin coloring is for a reason, doesn’t mean it is nor that he has the right reason, as pictures and videotapes prove Trump wears a lot of makeup to conceal a barrage of flaws, from wrinkles to paunchy and puffy skin, so again for a man supposedly uncaring about being laughed about…. Basically, once again, the writer is making assumptions for facts no where in evidence and which are actually indicated to be otherwise. This is not ‘winning’, it’s conning.

The photos, proven by multiple sources to be false, that Trump used that the writer said supported his theories, definitely do not support but contradict those theories; the ‘yuge’ inauguration turnout that Trump claimed was true, but the photos were from Obama’s inauguration not Trump’s, and the ‘yuge’ turnout for another function that Trump claimed was for him was actually from and for the Women’s March, which was anti-Trump.As for any speaking/speech ability, just rerun any of the debates, from the groping and humping of the American flag to the ‘bus incident’ and the ‘pageant incidents’ and the twitter eggs at 3 a.m. to further back up the fact that Trump is a petty, thin skinned low intelligence politically inept person, right down to pretending to be his own staff to further his faked image. Yes, twitter has a character limit, but he still makes typos and still says things that are not only politically incorrect but also wrong, vindictive, and ‘alternative truths’. Claiming something is great, really really great, without details, fills up twitter but does nothing to to fill out anything else with substance.I have seen so many videotapes and heard voice recordings, and no, he does not do the wandering thoughts thing on purpose, he just can not focus, and has more than proved that, except when he is outright lying and/or evading the truth. His vocabulary/lack of is proof of only being made fun of, not respected nor liked nor paid much attention to, and won’t be in any major usage much less in any dictionaries of note.

A lot of different people, some that voted for him, some that voted against him, and some that voted again his opponent, which there is a difference, that say and think otherwise. His language is not ‘apparently childish’, it is childish, and the child suckered enough Electoral College voters to now have his twitter fit fingers on the nuclear button. In the end, however, unlike some, I do not determine things the same way; I spent 4 weeks researching Trump, in detail, for what details I could get, which seemed to change almost daily as he wiffle waffled politically and otherwise worse than a weeble wobble toy. I studied all the candidates the same way, and know for a fact, my own and other’s comments and commentaries and shows and tapes, etcetera, that this is wrong, because most did not see Trump as some great choice, but the alternative to a choice they were not willing to make, although again in 100 days there are a lot of people wishing they had thought and done otherwise. This is NOT The Art of the Deal, rather the Art of the Steal, the Art of Don the Con. That makes him anything BUT a ‘winner’.

Is this book listed under Fiction, because it definitely should be. The people did not elect Trump, the Electoral College did.

I left the whole thing, in full, on my blog, but here pared it down. As to some of the conclusions in the book, WRONG. He didn’t win ‘biggly’ and he lost biggly in the popular vote, by more than most presidents in history. He can not stand being laughed at or being the butt of a joke, as evidenced by his spending more time and attention on SNL impersonations than he ever has in the War Room even with major bombing strikes going on. He watches Faux Newz and acts as if he actually believes what they spew, simply because they suck up to him even more than some of the other media, which is another point that he has been banning media for simply reporting the truth. For every criticism he made against Clinton {either one} or Obama, he has done what he complained they did, and he has done it more, worse. He has tried to corrupt the Constitution, something he very obviously has never actually read, much the same as the drivel he has signed or tried to have signed in to action. He has not only broken every single campaign promise, but much as the used car salesman persona he imitates, he has meant and done the exact opposite. He is a politician perhaps, but is a very very bad one, claiming he would ‘drain the swamp’ but ‘forgetting’ to add that he was going to fill it right back up with worse swamp monsters, totally unqualified to do the jobs they were given, and leaving thousands of key positions unfilled to this day. Being able to get away with lie after lie, alternative facts, doesn’t make you better than the other shysters in Washington.

He violated constitutional law by encouraging and probably abetting the Russians in hacking a U.S. election, and WRONG, his ‘political rhetoric’ a.k.a. outright lies proven to be lies via interviews, written and taped and video taped, prove that, so no, he is not a Winston Churchill. As far as not listening to certain news outlets, considering that the person you are claiming is ‘smart’ listens and believes Fox News, which won a lawsuit for the right to NOT have to live up to journalistic standards of actual news agencies {hence Faux Newz} but instead be labeled ‘entertainment’, that speaks for itself. People only underestimate the depths of Trump’s ignorance, stupidity, and hatred; he has proven himself to be xenophobic, misogynistic, a 5 time draft dodging vet disparaging war mongering imbecile who has put us in to another war, and directly because of oil, while trying to cripple the EPA {assuming he ever gets the name right} and setting us back by decades in preserving this planet {even to slashing funding in to clean energy and climate issues and space exploration}. He was fighting the Scottish courts for the right to build a seawall because as he stated global warming/climate change, yet otherwise denies it even exists.

His rallies went after minorities, disabled, lgbt, and a host of other things, just to get votes, but yet he has acted or tried to act on this landfill of hate spewing. The ‘accusations’ regarding one of Trump’s main people, Bannon, are NOT being accused falsely, and in fact again in print and audio and video has more than made his hate filled positions clear. and undeniable to anyone seeking and telling the truth. As for as Trump ‘making his own luck’, sure, if you call selling his name while doing none of the work on any of the building and failing to provide the backing promised, bankrupting businesses, hotels, buildings, being sued time after time and LOSING. He started with a million dollar loan, which millions were added to, ripping off his brothers and sisters and pulling the family health insurance from a very sick child, so no, this is not a ‘winner’, it’s a whiner. Income tax records show, as in prove, that not only is he not a billionaire, he’s not even a millionaire, and would basically be middle of middle class earnings. The major fault, of many but this one is main, is that Trump never was really running for president; he just wanted the contributions, which again is proven by his ‘self financed’ website where he asked for contributions, via credit card, up to and for past the actual election. Just another scam, much the same as Trump University, oops the courts said he could no longer use University in the name, since it wasn’t anything more than a ponzi type scheme.

Also, a team is made up of people who know things, because Trump has proven he knows next to nothing himself, so no it was not his idea for certain television spots. As for the question of whether Trump knows he is vulgar or not, that’s the wrong question; he knows, but as Billy Bush and other incidences have proven, he just doesn’t care, because he’s been able to get away with it for so long. Also, again, find it really hard to even try to believe a book/person that claims that Trump is a billionaire; it’s been proven, in court, that he is not, and that was what the other book claimed, and backed up, and over which Trump lost not one but two different lawsuits. As for his hair, that too has been proven to have been ‘worked’ on, and is a matter of record if someone cared to look for the facts. Also, just because the writer assume that Trump’s skin coloring is for a reason, doesn’t mean it is nor that he has the right reason, as pictures and videotapes prove Trump wears a lot of makeup to conceal a barrage of flaws, from wrinkles to paunchy and puffy skin, so again for a man supposedly uncaring about being laughed about…. Basically, once again, the writer is making assumptions for facts no where in evidence and which are actually indicated to be otherwise.

Just because the writer found certain photos or events supposedly in supporting his theories, definitely doesn’t mean they are true nor unbiased, because I personally know a lot of different people, some that voted for him, some that voted against him, and some that voted again his opponent which there is a difference, that say and think otherwise. As for any speaking/speech ability, just rerun any of the debates, from the groping and humping of the American flag to the ‘bus incident’ and the ‘pageant incidents’ and the twitter eggs at 3 a.m. to further back up the fact that Trump is a petty, thin skinned low intelligence buffon, right down to pretending to be his own staff to further his faked image. Yes, twitter has a character limit, but he still makes typos and still says things that are not only politically incorrect but also wrong, vindictive, and ‘alternative truths’. Claiming something is great, really really great, without details, fills up twitter but does nothing to to fill out anything else with substance. His language is not ‘apparently childish’, it is childish, and the child suckered enough Electoral College voters to now have his twitter fit fingers on the nuclear button.

In the end, however, unlike the writer of this book, I do not determine things the same way; I spent 4 weeks researching Trump, in detail, for what details I could get, which seemed to change almost daily as he wiffle waffled politically and otherwise worse than a weeble wobble toy. I studied all the candidates the same way, and know for a fact, my own and other’s comments and commentaries and shows, etcetera, that this whole book is wrong, because most did not see Trump as some great choice, but the alternative to a choice they were not willing to make, although again in 100 days there are a lot of people wishing they had thought and done otherwise. I have seen so many videotapes and heard voice recordings, and no, he does not do the wandering thoughts thing on purpose, he just can not focus, and has more than proved that. His vocabulary/lack of is proof of only being made fun of, not respected nor liked nor paid much attention to, and won’t be in any major usage much less in any dictionaries of note.

As for ‘lethal nicknames’ that was more of the usual Trump temper tantrum at being told and shown he was wrong, and just because he actually got elected doesn’t mean he wasn’t wrong nor does it mean he isn’t wrong now, just more dangerous. The so called ‘verbal kill shots’ were forgotten by the next news cycle which was on double time during the election. Crooked Hillary was by no means original, and all in all, as usual was just him trying to blow smoke up people’s backsides without every actually addressing himself or letting others do so, the actual issues of the debates. So, yes, on that I will agree; Trump was the clear winner in childishness and nonsense, but all of those ‘memorable’ insults and such he used, couldn’t have been that memorable, because they were soon forgotten by the next or the one after that news cycle, so spewed nonsense about nothing that was soon put in to the garbage bin of history until someone decided to rummage in the dumpster.

Also, according to this book, Trump supposedly build his own brand, but don’t see how when according to Trump himself his ‘brand’ has been around for years and that is how he sells his name to people to put on foreign clothing and building and so on. Just because the writer, very obviously, leans that way, doesn’t make the unproven assertions in the book true, either. It is also another false assertion that the use of Twitter is a commitment but a should be committed for an addiction, as his own staff have had to hide his phone. There is no realistic, truthful way to compare Trump’s tweets to Churchill or Roosevelt, either, because those two could actually form actual sentences and thoughts, and not wander off topic, and actually had topics, so doing so in only the Twitter restriction as well as in debates and then can’t even take a few moments to talk about sending our sons and daughters overseas to fight a war that is based on him wanting the oil.Just as ridiculous is applauding a Twitter egg by Trump insulting Time for not including him in the top 100, when again it’s been proven, several times and in the courts, that Trump is not a billionaire nor a millionaire and would be hard pressed to be considered middle middle class, regardless of how many millions he has the government spend on secret service, several different residences, and having the secret service and others charged for even being on the plane.

One cannot ‘misrepresent’ someone who is on audiotape, videotape, and in print that he approved at the time before it went out, but now wants to claim was wrong; that’s called backtracking by a liar and a con man. The same goes for taking credit for employment numbers, which were still being tallied for Obama not Trump who had not even taken office, for Brexit which he had nothing to do with although he did manage to insult their ambassador and Australia and Canada who have long been our allies, yet attempt a ‘muslim ban’ that never included the oil rich countries and ones that he had business dealings with. Again, that is not truth, that is not political savvy, that is ridiculous to think that people who have been major figures in politics for years would consider the ‘advice’ of a know nothing don’t nothing infantile novice. His tweet though the years, again PROVE all what my assertions are, being fact, while this book does nothing but assume the Trump stance of lie and act as if it’s the truth even it it directly contradicts something said 5 minutes or 5 days or 5 weeks or 5 years ago. The only reason Trump got as much free media coverage as he did, without paying, is because he sucked up to Faux Newz plus was blowing out so much smokey contradictions on Twitter and every other type medium that people were making fun of him as well as fact checking, when he miserably failed with as well. He also did not spend millions on his campaign, he ‘loaned’ it less than around 250,000 and was pulling in cash and other payments through his website, again set to auto withdraw until quite a bit after the election was going to be totally over, so no again, in that claiming/lying that the campaign was self funded does not make it self funded.

He also definitely never appeared to ‘sacrifice’ anything, and when asked what had he sacrificed mentioned running businessed and hiring people, versus the question being about the Gold Star family he had a media war against or the P.O.W, {McCain} saying he wasn’t a hero because he had been captured, yet Trump himself being a 5 time draft dodging wimp who could not even remember what heel had the supposed bone spur{s} that were so bad he was finally labeled unfit for duty so spent the entire war playing make believe ‘soldier’ in a military ‘academy’ school. Some gave some, some gave all, Trump gave nothing, except excuses and mockery. Businesses around the world no longer carry Trump merchandise, his nor his daughter’s, and some also no longer carry the name on the buildings so yes tell us about how his ‘brand’ has not suffered. That was the only ‘cost’ to Trump, not any personal money and not any of the thousands upon thousands of donations that went to his campaign costs, including his and his family’s personal living expenses. Yes, an aura of authenticity, which is a thin particle board replica of real wood and devoid of any realness otherwise. To praise someone for sounding authentic when knowing they are being fake, how is that supposed to be a good or decent way to be. and it’s not just in case there is any doubt on that. To babble on and on, never saying anything of substance, and then backtracking, repeatedly on supposed stands, is not something to be admired nor loaded in a politician nor a human being. He should not be congratulated but condemned for being fake, untrustworthy, and illiterate or just plain stupid on matters which someone aspiring to the highest office in this land should not be. Spraying a garbage dump with perfume or cologne doesn’t make it smell much better, and definitely does not change the fact that it is still a garbage dump, no matter if the dump is ‘framed’ by majestic trees and parks. Making experience a millstone was not a choice, it was a necessity for someone who has bankrupted company after company, lost lawsuit after lawsuit, has no political knowledge whatsoever, and has no idea of policies nor why and what they were put in place for. Wandering around, supposedly ‘owning’ the stage, was not true; many, many who say that debate not only likened it to stalking as well as wandering aimlessly and fidgeting, but also listened to the actual debate in which all they heard was a petulant bully child ticked off because he didn’t prepare, and couldn’t have because he doesn’t have the required intellect, because debates are harder that his being a Twitter twit, throwing the twitter egg then running to hide. And if such ‘strategies’ as The Art of the Deal {since when was swindling a deal} worked do great, how did all those business, including how many casinos, go bankrupt because of Trump? Of course, his little bit of money was safe, just not anyone else’s money, so how does being a loser of a conman equate in the writer’s eyes to ‘winning’ like Trump? It’s not thinking on your feet to flip flop, constantly, when with any other politician you would have had to say they were flip flopping and didn’t know what they were even for or against. This is a position that affects millions and millions of people; he doesn’t have the time or the right not to study what in the world {literally} is going on. How the writer can say in one section that it is savvy then use as an example a twitter tirade of a petty playground tyrant taking his ball and going home in a snit fit is beyond me, unless it were a book about Things Not To Do. You can also rewite history in this book, but there are other books, factual books, that prove he did not win the night, nor gain thousands of votes, and in fact just barely got enough for the electoral. The fictional account of Megan Kelly going after Trump first, when all she did was ask him actual pertinent questions during a debate for which he said she had ”blood coming out of her eyes, out of her whatever”, I saw that debate, many time, and it’s on video, so no matter what the writer spins it as, in sports jargon, let’s go to the tape. As for the women that Trump brought on stage, one if not more were proven to have been paid off, as legal hearings on that matter and repeated interviews over previous years said the exact opposite. So, no, Trump has no ‘peaceful’ strategy, and in fact no real strategy at all, just bumbling and mumbling along hoping some suckers will be sucked in.

As far as hiring people who know what to do, when he doesn’t, there are not enough government positions to cover that gap turned gaping hole, and there are thousands of positions that have still not been filled, 100 plus days in, plus he only responsds to suckups and yes men, so that further narrows things down. Credible threat of massive retaliation, is that someone’s words for his temper tantrum twitter egg throwing 3 a.m. bombs? I have never read or heard higher praise for a worse person, except for Trump talking about Putin and other dictators. Regarding Clinton and Syrian No Fly Zones, what is the point there, as Trump has done ‘safe zones’ and is talking of doing no fly zones, so really the facts once again point out the nonsense in this book. It also makes no sense to talk about how many people were at Trump campaign rallies or inauguration, because reports, by some, where falsified, and proved so my documents and video and other means. Just as was the Trump tweet urging voters to go to the polls, on the wrong date {that date was his fraud trial over Trump ‘university’}. The photos Trump tweeted of the inauguration were from Obama’s; the photos from some rally were actually from the women’s march the day after. He may seemingly never seem to sleep; he also never seemingly stops sucking at the tit of America for golf trips, extra security for going back and forth, separate residences for him and the first lady, extra secret service and white house money for his children in various official and unofficial positions, charging the government rent for room at his hotel because they have to be near the first lady for security reasons even though totally in another city, and on and on. No, Trump is not like Sherlock Holmes, keeping his brain uncluttered of irrelevant information; the presidency of the United states has NO ‘irrelevant information’, and the FACT that Trump treats it all as irrelevant does not change the facts.

So uh yeah, win like Trump…lie, cheat, steal, lie some more, backtrack more than the hockey pokey.

One thought on “How To Win Like Trump: Nine Simple Rules for Victory Against the Odds”

Asked my roommate if he thought Trump was dumb, he said no, though he was smart playing dumb. I said, nope, dumb playing smart. Smart people know they are dumb, as in they know they don’t know everything, or even most things.

I know what I know, and I know what i don’t know, and what I know best is which people to ask things. Wild Bill gets physics and political questions, Cubby gets blow em up/make sure it doesn’t’ blow up engineering type degree, those and others know about the made up math of Algebra, and so on. There are a couple of instances would think of Ms Fever and Wild for, and no trying to keep the blog at least somewhat pg most times so not going there, just saying. Music stuff would ask an old friend of John Mark’s {who is now in the Great Shooting Range in the Sky with unlimited ammo and weapons} or my roommate Blacksilver {and yes, all these people have actual names, and no not particularly trying to hide the names but it’s the names/nick names I call them so there}
